Stuart Garner, from Brixton in south London is cycling from Dieppe through Brittany and Normandy to Cherbourg at the beginning of October, to raise funds for a mobile clinic in Turkana, northern Kenya.

Stuart said: "We are going to cover over 200 miles come rain or shine! The clinic, run by the Missionary Community of St Paul the Apostle (MCSPA), is sponsored by the charity New Ways. It will provide healthcare to around seven hundred children and adults each month in a remote area of 11,000 sq km where there is no other primary healthcare provision.

"Our target is £100,000 which will buy and equip a vehicle and supply all the running costs for eighteen months."

If you'd like to sponsor me I'd really appreciate it and will make a lot of difference to some people in a very remote part of Africa.
